  1. This would be a nightmare. ( The Jeanty part ) I'm all for "IOL hard in FA"
  2. Seems like giving 3 NFL WRs the chance to find the gaps in zone coverage would be just as much of a gamble. If a bring the house blitz was unable to get to or pressure the QB enough to effect the throw then I doubt just bringing one extra and dropping the rest into coverage would have been much better.
  3. Clearly the Redskins need to put together a trade package and trade up to the 10th pick and take Jeanty.
  4. THIS absolutely THIS. ( Both you and Raw's post above ) Of course taking Jeanty @ 10 is beyond stupid, but this is a great year to get an RB in R2 or Preferably R3.
  5. It's time for a new coach.
  6. Yes, and they don't count if it's a person from your own organization i.e. Thomas Brown and the Bears.
  7. While I wouldn't mind seeing Notre Dame publicly sticking their finger in Brian Kelley's eye. I just don't see anyway Ohio State doesn't blow the Irish out. Something like 35-10.
  8. If I remember correctly I believe those three previous losses were at one of those stupid early season weekend tournaments and they were missing a key player due to injury. Looking at some of the games they played and won after that I could see an argument for people discounting those losses somewhat and still viewing them as a top 10 or so team. At least up until this last loss.
  9. stupid bears wrecking draft position for a totally meaningless game.
  10. DJ doing his part to help with draft position
  11. I assume Ohio St is going to win it all, but I wouldn't mind seeing ND win just so they could give the middle finger to Brian Kelly.
  12. Arizona flat tax rate 2.5% Ontario 13.16% Yeah, that takes a good chuck of the extra.
  13. If the Redskins hold on to win vs ATL then they would hold the tiebreaker over GB for the 6 vs 7 seed. The real question however is could the Bears stop the way GB uses Malik Willis ... I think not. Play the starters or rest them, GB probably wins either way.
  14. Falcons expected to cut Kirk Cousins before $10M bonus due So If i understand THIS correctly the Falcons are about to light $ 65 Million on fire.
  15. It will never happen but they really need to skip the automatic bye for conference champions. Two of Texas, Penn State, Notre Dame or Ohio State should have had byes over Boise State and Arizona. It's only going to get worse when the ACC eventually gets raided by the SEC and BIG 10.
  16. Indiana most defiantly was not a top 10 team this year. You could argue that they were maybe somewhere around #13-16. I think more likely they are around #18-22. They played 3 cupcakes to start the year ( like most teams do ) and won impressively. But come on ... FIU ( 4-8 ) # 7 in the CUSA W Illinois ( 4-8 ) # 6 in the BIG-SOUTH-OVC Charlotte ( 5-7 ) #8 in the American That's hardly anything to go crazy about. Now the big 10. With the exception of USC and Wisconsin, Indiana played the entire bottom half of the 18 team conference. Purdue 0-9 ( 1-11 ) #18 Maryland 1-8 ( 4-8 ) #17 Northwestern 2-7 ( 4-8 ) #16 Michigan St. 3-6 ( 5-7 ) # 14 Nebraska 3-6 ( 6-6 ) # 13 UCLA 3-6 ( 5-7 ) #12 Washington 4-5 ( 6-6 ) # 10 That right there is 10 of Indiana's wins. Take a look at the top 25-30 or so teams in the country. It would be easy to see around 20 going 10-0 against that lineup like Indiana did. So the question is how many would have also beat Michigan? With an apology to UMFan83 my guess is around 15 or so. Indiana was a solid 8-9 win type team if you compare to before conference expansion screwed up the schedules. Indiana was a one trick pony this year. Either you could handle the RPO or you couldn't. Luckily they faced a bunch of teams that couldn't. It was obvious from at least midway through the season or earlier if you watched the games. This was literally their best season since the invention of the forward pass. But let's not get it twisted and think moronic things like they were an elite team. As an IU fan I am thrilled that they had a great season. For IU this was a special season. But in terms of college football it was really a special schedule.
  17. I would say that it is more a case of they are a solid notch below the top 10 or so teams. The expanded conference and the teams on the schedule that they missed saved 2-3 losses this year. Penn St, Iowa (Maybe?), Illinois all would have beat them. A normal Michigan team would have beat them.
  18. So let me see if I have this straight ... A team basically hires a coach and then hires a GM and sticks him with that coach and then hires a president of BS and sticks him with that GM and coach and now there may or may not be internal fighting. So Bears.
  19. That's so bears.
  20. Warren didn't hire Poles. That was Mcshitsky and company.
  21. Punting is winning ...
  22. This crazy talk over a few of the last couple of posts about a RB is nonsense. Fix the offensive line and the RB situation takes care of itself. Maybe spend a third or fourth round pick every 2-3 years at most. Of course the occasional fifth to seven round pick at RB is fine also. Add some quality CHEAP free agent's at RB if or when available, but no real salary cap space or high draft pick capital ever!!! Running backs don't really matter .... It's the O-Line stupid. NOTE: that last line is not a dig at those who may disagree with me, It's just a joking reference to 90's politics.
  23. so we can expect 200+ yards rushing🤔
  24. Assuming some the names that have been mentioned would say yes then any thought of Brown getting the job for next year is flat out crazy talk. Unless the last five games are some kind of an epic level magic I wouldn't even consider it. Even then It would be borderline.
